OpenAI Codex - AI Tool

An AI that translates natural language into code

About OpenAI Codex

OpenAI Codex is a direct descendant of GPT-3 that has been finetuned for programming tasks.

OpenAI Codex has broad knowledge of how people use code and is significantly more capable than GPT-3 in code generation, in part, because it was trained on a data set that includes a much larger concentration of public source code.

OpenAI Codex is a new machine learning tool that translates your text in the English language into code. Codex is designed to speed up the work of professional programmers, as well as help amateurs get started coding.

According to OpenAI, the current version of Codex has a 37-percent accuracy on coding tasks as opposed to GPT-3’s zero percent.

Together with GitHub OpenAI is releasing the first Codex-powered app, GitHub Copilot. Codex has many more capabilities, which developers can explore—and build into their own apps—when we release Codex through our API later this summer.
